Meeting a Bat Shifter Yura: The Time Has Come

Seojun came back home from work at the department store. The first thing he did was take a bath, eat instant ramen and watch TV while drinking alcohol. He got drunk and he went to the bathroom to clear himself up. He started seeing everything disoriented and his head made contact with the sink then the floor. When he woke up, he found himself lying on something soft. He looked around and he wasn't in his bathroom anymore, he was in a forest.

How did I get here? I thought. Am I dreaming?

He pinched himself, No I'm not.

Suddenly, he saw a girl in front of him. She had white hair, bat wings and was wearing a tube top with a skirt made from animal skin and a straw hat to block the sun from shining on her face. She knelt down and was looking at his face.

"Who are you?" He asked, his voice entangled with fear.

"I should be asking you," she said bluntly. "Which tribe are you from? Where is your pack?"

He got stunned by her questions but he decided to play along, "I don't have any."

"That's impossible," she crossed her arms. "Or were you exiled for any wrongdoings?"

Seojun shook his head, "No, not at all. I grew up all by myself."

"So you were left by your pack at a young age?" she said with her voice filled with pity.

He nodded, "Yes."

"What tribe are you? Are you a fox, wolf, bat, deer, snake, hawk?" she questioned.

He thought for a while. He was no close to any of the animals she mentioned, so one slip of tongue, he might be screwed even worse, she might drink his blood.

"I don't know," I said.

"Can't you shift?" She asked.

He sighed softly, "Unfortunately, I can't."

"It's a shame," she placed her hand on her cheek. "And you must have tried your best to keep yourself away from other shifters to prevent being discriminated."

"I have," he agreed.

"Come with me, I'll take you home," she held him and began to fly to her home.

Her home was like a large mountain with caves in them. Females were coming in and coming out. Some held their young ones some held food and was feeding it to their children, and the females that were outside were sewing or other activities.

The males were doing work like trading, healing and so on. Then Seojun noticed something... females were more common than the males and the males could turn into a full bat but females could only have wings, bat ears and claws. And they all wore hats to block the sun from hitting their faces.

When she got down, they started walking on foot. Other shifters were staring at her, both male and female. She could hear them saying

"Does she finally have a mate?" and "He dresses weird but he's quite handsome."

"Are they talking about us?" he asked her.

She nodded slowly, "Just ignore them."

"So Noire," a light female voice echoed. "You finally found a mate."

That voice was the voice of Amara, the most popular female in the bat shifter clan. Noire never really liked her because whenever Amara came to her, it was usually to spite her.

"Now tell me," Amara caressed Seojun's face. " What did you see in a lowlife like Noire? There are other females out there waiting for you."

Seojun was feeling uncomfortable. Meanwhile Noire was thinking that he was too weak and block headed to tell her stop, but she couldn't blame him. While Amara was going to kiss Seojun on the cheek while looking at Noire with disdain, Noire clenched her fists and her face was becoming bright red.

Noire pulled him away from her grasp, "He's mine, go find your own mate."

When Noire and Seojun were gradually ascending into the sky, Amara scoffed, "How dare she humiliate me like that!" The females and males that were following her coaxed her with words that pleased her.

"So your name is Noire?" he asked.

"Yes male, my name is Noire," she replied.

"I have a name," he said as Noire landed him softly on the rocky ground.

Noire slightly tilted her head, "And what might that be?"

"Seojun," he replied.

When he looked back, he saw a lake and he looked at his reflection. His hair was scattered and his face was scruffy and dirty, it looked like she brought him there to take a bath.

"There's a market over there, I'll go buy you some clothes, so just bathe yourself," she stated before leaving him.

Seojun watched as Noire left him. He decided to be honest with himself and saw how pretty she was. The tube she wore covered her torso but the skirt still revealed her curves and dark but thick thighs. And compared to all the females he had seen, this one seemed a little more...bold and commanding.

But what was Noire going to do to him? Don't makes claim who their mates get to be and not the other way around?

Oh my God! he thought. Is Noire attracted to me? Should I just run away now that I have the chance and find my way home?

Seojun was never attracted to any girl in his life and he was just twenty. He didn't even finish college yet and he was earning money for himself by taking up small jobs. That means everything he worked for came to waste.

"You haven't bathed yet?" Noire said, holding clothes in her hand.
